[ILUG] OT: Confidentiality and emails

[Bill Appelbe]

Hi
These are added by legal departments - they probably are unenforceable
but legal depts need to justify their existance.

we could keep sending mails to the admins demanding permission to copy
as we are replying with an inline copy ;-)

I don't see the benefit of not allowing these posts except annoying the
employees of these companies.

Bill
